Details have emerged on Halo 2 Vista's map editor and what the Halo community will be able to do with it.

While Halo 2 might be very old news for the Xbox audience, the upcoming PC Vista release will contain a few features we wish we'd got to play with on the Xbox version - namely being able to create your own maps and share them over Live.

According to Game Informer the PC version will ship with a map editor that'll allow gamers to create and share maps online, just like almost every other FPS on PC. The tool will give bedroom coders access to the assets used by Bungie and allow them to build new geometry as well as importing your own assets.

But do PC gamers really care about Halo 2? Is this something you're going to sweat over? Aren't there better alternatives out there already? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.

There will still be no cross-play for PC and Xbox gamers though But we're crossing our fingers that the final release of Halo 3 on 360 will include a similar (albeit watered down) map editor. Just thinking about what the community surrounding the game will create is enough to make you dizzy.
